asoiaf girls part 2

lines 1584-1711 of the lay of leithian really do feel like an interpolation from another poem though. like a) the change in subject is ABRUPT b) multiple references to ‘oh and this story is told in another song/poem’ wink wink nudge nudge c) all the proleptic weirdness so far is in this section d) you don’t even need it. it goes through the entire oath of fëanor sequence + the history of the noldor in beleriand up to the dagor bragollach all just as background to felagund’s oath to barahir… which we already know about from earlier in the lay, and which is summarised again right after this passage. who is adding this stuff. and why. and when

Broke: Gondolin was a serious, conservative, prudish city.

Woke: The Gondolindrim were stuck in one city for 400-ish years with no Morgoth threatening them and basically nothing do to. If anyone in Middle-Earth was entertaining themselves with festivals and ragers, it was them. We're talking drunken moshpits, people getting thrown into fountains, endless romantic intrigue between most of the Lords, the whole nine yards.

Bespoke: The Gondolindrim were party animals but they all agreed that what happens in Gondolin stays in Gondolin and never talked about the parties after the fall; which is why Gondolin gets a reputation for being so serious and boring. Most of the Gondolindrim, and especially Turgon, think this is hilarious.

i think dunk and egg should continue forever so they just keep getting roped into increasingly ludicrous political events. lucius vorenus and titus pullo getting into shenanigans during the fall of the roman republic except it's a giant and a bald kid personally involved in every blackfyre rebellion

i downloaded Krita and i tried out some fun brushes to ink and colour this sketch of an ancient ship that i recently rediscovered and that is a perfect vessel for the bottomless yearning in my soul :^)
